Consider these phylogenetic trees. The first tree is based on physical characteristics. The second tree is based on structure, genetics, and evolutionary history.

2 phylogenetic trees are shown. The first tree has 3 branches that go to duck, platypus, and opossum. The second tree has 2 branches that go to duck and platypus. Opossum branches off of the platypus branch.

Which can be concluded from a comparison of the two phylogenetic trees?
Phylogenetic trees are not subject to change.
Classification can change with new discoveries and evidence.
Classification does not change with more evidence.
Phylogenetic trees are inaccurate.

Which best describes the difference between protists that have cilia and those that have flagella?
Those that have cilia are animal-like protists, and those that have flagella are plant-like protists.
Those that have flagella are animal-like protists, and those that have cilia are plant-like protists.
Those with cilia move using hair-like extensions, and those with flagella move using a single whip-like extension.
Those that have cilia are heterotrophs, and those that have flagella are autotrophs.
